poultry,’ said she, pointing to a little bantam cock that was strutting about the yard. ‘I haven't the heart to kid him because he isa pet. If you want him, you can take him and do as you like with him.’

“During the campaign of 1863 he of- ten sat on my shoulder through the long, Weary marches and hurried re- treats, and I shared my rations with him. One night we had reached the flank of the enemy's camp by a forced march and lay down to sleep on our arms, expecting to be roused at the break of day for a sudden charge. I had started off with General perched upon my musket barrel, and a sudden change in the order of march had separated us from the wagous, so I placed the roost- er on the limb of a sapling above my head, while 1 lay down to snatch a fow nunutes’ sleep.

“General did not ntter a single elnck iu protest, although be must have been very hungry from long fasting, but quietly squatted on the branch while I tlung myself on the grass and leaves und was soon fast asleep. I was so

weary that I slept profoundly until I |

was suddenly aroused by au unearthly screech in my car. Raising my head, I took in the whole situation at a glance.

‘*General had dropped down from his perch and uttered a shrill crow right in my ear which had awakened me, and as I opened my eyes I saw the flash of guns as our pickets fired and in an instant fell back upon us where we lay. The Yankees had turned the tables on us,

and, discovering our presence, the sur- |

prising force became the surprised, and in ten minutes there was an unearthly racket going on in that pine thicket.

“Right and left of my position the boys came out of cover and advanced with yells and cheers, moving cautious- ly and firing as they moved. It had be- come sufficiently light for me to find my few belongings, and I soon recover- ed my hat and haversack, which I had forgotten to pick up in the hurry cf the first surprise, and just at that time I was saluted with a loud crow just above my head, and looking up I saw General perched upon his limb, he having flown back there when the firing began, and with his head held on one side he was S.dling along the swaying branch, crow- ing and clucking.

“In spite of the banging of the guns and whistling of bullets General stuck bravely to his perch and never fluttered during the entire engagement. When

and from within the tent occupied by Jim Nessmith came the muffled crow of an old rooster. Jim made a grab at the bag and succeeded in choking him off, but the noise had reached the ears of some of the others, and the captain be- came apprised of the fact that Jim had been foraging. A hasty examination of his tent disclosed the body of the big rooster, choked to death by Jim in his anxiety to put a stop to his untimely crowing.

‘*Jim was ordered under arrest pend- ing an investigation, but just about that time the order came to advance, and we moved forward, and by sunrise we were fichting, and the unfortunate officer who had ordered Jim to be placed un- der arrest was borne from the fielda corpse after the fight was over. The af- fair was forgotten amid the stirring scenes that followed.

‘Seeing that the end was near, I found an opportunity to send General to the rear, and placing him in a cage

POULTRY NOTES.

In mating the breeding fowls select the hardiest, most perfect specimens.

Generally on the farm medium sized breeds will give the best returns.

The safest plan is to mark the ducks each year so as to know their ages.

Close quarters, cleanliness and fat form- ing foods will fatten most rapidly.

Turkeys digest rapidly and for this reason are apparently always hungry.

When eggs are to be kept, care should be taken to turn them half over every few days.

One of the secrets of egg producing in winter is warm, dry quarters for tLe lay- ing hens.

On wet, low lying lands ducks and geese are the only fowls that can be kept to advantage.

Growing a patch of rye convenient to the poultry quarters is one of the best ways of supplying green food in winter.

It is often the case that feeding broken oil cake to fowls twice a week will pro- mote laying when other foods will fail.

FAMOUS BATTLES.

Braddock was defeated, not at Pitts- burg, as is generally supposed, but at a point on the Monongahela river ten miles from the city.

Metz, where Marshal Bazaine and more than 100,000 French surrendered to the Germans, is a fortified city of Alsace-Lor- raine, 80 miles northwest of Strasburg.

Gaza, the town from which Samson car- ried off the gates and where Ptolemy de- feated Demetrius, is on the caravan route between Syria and Egypt, about three miles from the Mediterranean.

The battle of Marengo was fought ata small village of the same name in Pied- mont. Bonaparte’s great victory wes won on a4 plain near the village. His most fa- mous horse was named after this victory.

The battle of Camden, where Gates was routed and his hopes of becoming com- mander in chief of the American armies were dissipated, was at a village of tho same name in Kershaw county, 8. C., 102 miles northwest of Charleston.

Edgehill, where a great battle was fought between Charles I and the jarlia- mentary army, is in Warwickshire, 12 miles southeast of the town of Warwick. On the side of the hill is cut the colossal figure of a horse, whence a valley below has been named the Vale of Red Horse.

Tours, which has given its name to the series of engagements between Charles Martel and the Saracens, in which the lat- ter were defeated and the tide of Saricenic invasion rolled back toward Spain, isa city of southern France, situated «n the confluence of the Cher and Loire, 120 miles southwest of Paris.—St. Louis Ulobe- Democrat.
